back in Hanoi

We are back from the beach. It was an amazing time with such wonderful kids. The joy in their eyes was so contagious and so lovely to be around. We all had a hard time saying goodbye this morning.

Had some free time this afternoon and me, Edi, and Rachel went out shopping. We found some really good deals on some pretty stuff. I think I have all my gifts that I needed besides 2, but those have been hard to find. That will be my mission before we leave. We are going to a nicer restaurant tonight where there is Vietnamese food. I'm very glad that we have had American food for the last two meals otherwise I wouldn't be looking forward to tonight, but after some pizza and a cheeseburger I'm ready for some rice and seafood. :)

Tomorrow we head out to a lake with a different orphanage and we are staying overnight at a hotel out there. I wanted to put up just a few pictures before we head out for dinner.The beach at Do Son, don't you want to just jump in ;)
